What makes The Beaverton Business Network different from other
online directories?
First, The Beaverton Business Network
highly localized. That is, it focuses exclusively on businesses
that are based in or serve a large volume of clients in Beaverton,
Oregon. So from a local search perspective, you’ll gain a
large benefit. Second, it goes beyond simply a name, address and
phone number. You’ll have all those items included, of course,
but in addition to your business web site you’ll also be
able to link to all of your social network pages, blogs, and profile
pages on association sites. Third, and most importantly, your listing
in the Network provides you with an opportunity to post a keyword
rich, search engine optimized page (or pages) that highlight the
details of your business and offerings. The Network will develop
a tailored page title and description for your listing. This listing
will provide an important source of legitimate one-way inbound
links for your sites and pages. Most other directory sites fall
short in these areas.

How does The Beaverton Business Network optimize my listing?
First, we’ll work with you to identify keywords based on
your existing web site content. We’ll incorporate those into
your title and description tags. These are HTML tags. Your title
tag appears in the uppermost blue bar (above the File, Edit View,
etc. toolbar) of your browser. The text in the description tag
appears in search engine results. It’s the blurb that appears
right under the blue line in the results. Both are primary targets
for search engines.
Next we’ll incorporate your keywords into the content on
your listing page. If we’re writing the copy we’ll
simply work the keywords and phrases in. If you’re providing
the copy, we’ll make recommendations for edits so that they’ll
be included. We’ll also make recommendations about contextual
links – links that are within the body of the copy – that
could link to your site.
